'Iron Man 2' Soundtrack to Feature Only AC/DC Songs
- Posted on Jan 26th 2010 2:30PM by Dan Reilly
Aside from their 1992 live album, AC/DC have never come anywhere near releasing a greatest hits compilation. Until now.In a surprise move, the Aussie rockers are supplying 15 of their most popular songs to the soundtrack for 'Iron Man 2.' While it still doesn't feature all of the band's hits, it's the best representation of the band's studio output to be released. AC/DC, for their part, have long resisted a greatest hits package, preferring that their fans by the albums in their entirety.
The soundtrack represents their earliest days with original frontman Bon Scott to 'War Machine,' a track from 2008's 'Black Ice' that shares its name with Don Cheadle's superhero character in the film. The album, which is available for preorder at Walmart, is due out April 19 while the Robert Downey, Jr.-starring film hits theaters on May 7. Check out the tracklist and a special Iron Man-themed video for 'Shoot to Thrill' after the jump.
'Iron Man 2' Soundtrack Tracklisting:
1. 'Shoot to Thrill'
2. 'Rock'N'Roll Damnation'
3. 'Guns for Hire'
4. 'Cold Hearted Man'
5. 'Back in Black'
6. 'Thunderstruck'
7. 'If You Want Blood (You've Got It)'
8. 'Evil Walks'
9. 'T.N.T.'
10. 'Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be'
11. 'Have a Drink on Me'
12. 'The Razor's Edge'
13. 'Let There Be Rock'
14. 'War Machine'
15. 'Highway to Hell'

Good collection of tunes, not a "best of" or "greatest hits" by any means. I like that the Flick Of The Switch album gets some exposure. For someone who doesn't have much AC/DC, it looks like a decent album. Having all their stuff, I see no reason to get it myself. Although I saw that it comes with a DVD as well, which might sway my decision.

But if you buy this AND Who Made Who ( the soundtrack to a 1980s Steven King film), then you could get a much better representation of their hits. Just sayin
